PALEO CHILI

Paleo Chili image

Paleo (eating like our pre-agricultural revolution ancestors ate) chili is made without beans. In the west we typically include beans, but I think even non-paleo eaters will enjoy this deep smoky flavorful chili. This is best made a day ahead so the flavors can meld together. Serve with green onions and sour cream.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 dried chipotle pepper, stem removed
1 cup boiling water
1 ½ teaspoons coconut oil
1 cup chopped yellow onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 cup chopped red bell pepper

1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • Soak chipotle pepper in boiling water until softened, about 10 minutes. Remove pepper from water and mince.

This chili is amazing! It's the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day. I love the rich flavor and the tender beef.

This chili is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it's still really good. I'll just have to be careful not to add too much cayenne pepper next time.

I've made this chili several times now and I always tweak the recipe a bit. I like to add more vegetables and sometimes I use ground turkey instead of beef. It's always delicious!
